Practicing some panning shots on a lazy sunday. Not sure where to put it, so I thought this is as good as any.
1. some silhouette shots.

I like your third image a lot. The tilt of the camera and diagonal horizon line really add to the drama! :thumb

Hey thanks all.

Pixel Popper,
I like to pan in portrait mode so it's tougher as the frame is narrower. Something I like to do for fun, since this is just a hobby for me. Plus I tend to prefer portrait compositions.

Whenever I pan, I prefer to add a little dutch angle to add a sense of imbalance and drama as well.

Like the potential for whats going on in shots 1 & 2 but as noted already shot 3 is super sweet! 1/30th? Now thats not too easy at the focal length metioned. :thumb Michael

These are real sweet :clap
First word that comes to mind for the first two shots is Zorro,
maybe its the hats but that was my first thought :D

The Panned shot looks great, I can even see the water droplets on the hairs around it's mouth .... excellent capture :thumb
